[@MsWoo69]

Vanessa Bell Armstrong is so underrated she deserves much more respect than people give her! Awesome Woman of God!!!! She bless my soul every time!!

[@loopyman76]

I love the beginning of that song. That funny, sassy phrasing she does with her voice is signature Vanessa. Nobody can do it like VBA!!!

[@Deerych]

These songs paved the way for so many gospel artists today! SANG VANESSA!!!

[@saveourselvespc]

I hate oversinging also, but this is not oversinging. THIS IS GENIUS!!!!!!!! She is coming from a place that is so deep in the African tradition, it takes the ears of one who can transcend our colonial oppression of a white centered value system to grasp what she is summoning. GO HEAD MS. SPIRIT OF LIFE

[@YolandaMarant]

THE BEAST OF ALL TIME!!! Never another like her!

[@StylesbyMrsLaffy]

I love her so much.....Before I got saved she was one that I could hear God speaking to me through her beautiful voice. I don't want to hear nobody eles tell me that you can't get saved through a song....it's the person that is delivering the message through song. Bless Jesus

[@sing240]

5:02-5:05 that was awesome!!!!!!!!!!! OH MY GOD SHE IS BLESSED

[@darkkkonyx]

Why this lady isnt a Billionaire escapes me completely.

[@tcane22]

Did anyone see recognize Twinkie Clark in the audience, saying "sang girl" around 4:35...the video of VBA...love her...thankx for the post...TCANE

[@dashortqueen]

"When ever the Lord says PEACE, there will be PEACE", due to the fact that God is real, for I have tired Him for myself!!!

[@nazrandal]

[@200218]

Oh MY GOODNESS!! She starting ministering to me after 8 mins...saying peace be still to all of situations!! JESUS!!

[@music88jd]

Her range never left! Riff @ 4:40-4:46 :)

[@CurtBrian]

Yes I would have to agree with you there especially taking into account the fact that lots of church folks often mistake or pass off TALENT,SKILL, and ENTERTAINMENT as anointing...Just as the Bible says..."The Enermy has done this"!

[@karressu]

Vanessa sing honey, keep singing like u feel it. We all express ourselves according to how good GOD has been to us. When u been thru some experiences/lived long enuff. Hey, u wll go all in on a song, testimony, etc... esp whn GOD has brought u out u knew it wasn't nobody, but JESUS! Some don't thnk shouting is necessary, yelling THANK U JESUS, but no one will hold me from praising. U weren't there,... u don't knw like I knw. Vanessa sing it 'UR WAY,... baby! I'm blessed by ALL OF THAT... peace!

[@CharlesGude]

I saw Vanessa sing in Boston at the Strand. the band was late so she sung with only the piano player, and she sing as if an orchestra was backing her. I was so amazed by her singing and God given talent.

[@th3youngsing3r]

KILLED! My peace is still Now!!

[@jonesvj]

[@loopyman76]

Well said, gldnboy17!

[@midnitehour]

Ok i'm dead...she killed that....i mean ....wow...what do you say?

[@shardtx]

the thing is....NO ONE can sound like VBA.

[@mlb8504]

you better say dat!!!! I was over killin myself laughing!!!!

[@gldnboy17]

Lol, touched and or changed, doesnt matter to me. Im just not going to argue about this, besides, you're responding to a post of mine from 2 yrs ago. I have no points to make. I do like her, although through the years she has aged, had difficulties, and her style is a lot different in comparison. Ultimately, i still like her. But everyone will have their own opinion, and thats what i love.

[@ddoddy76]

i dunno what was p wit da bgv's dat nite, but da girl singing soprano is lena starks.. and she a beast...she coulda sang it all by herself...but i feel ya

[@Jaypraise]

When was this show?

[@ddoddy76]

ok....between nessa and them ole clarks...detroit got it sold up....lol

[@prof32]

This begs the question then what is truly anointed? I ask that because usually I find a lot of church folk who will comment here throwing the word around so casually particularly when comparing artists to put the one up on an artist they love, generally used when comparing a secular versus gospel or baptist versus pentecostal. Doesn't it still boil down to personal preference? That would certainly be the case if you had two "anointed" singers singing the same song.

[@CurtBrian]

WOW LOL! I think I must agree with you here even though I really like her music. Then I begin to wonder if everone else needs their ears checked becuz most times when lots of our black Gospel singers do this(im black by the way)...it really doesnt sound very good AT ALL...would sound much much better and would really be more of a blessing just to sing the song NORMALLY. Almost would be comical if it wasnt sad...

[@Orbot]

Ur not the only one, lol!

[@gldnboy17]

U too

[@cameroncoleman3400]

I love Vanessa and her voice but is it just me or does she look just like Shenaynay from Martin LOL anybody remember that?

[@dashortqueen]

Wow, I think Va'nes did a good job, it's all about reaching that 1 lost soul, please quash all the negative talk about Va'nes!!!

[@MarisaTurnerMusic]

Sounds like you doing a little PR there CurtBrian...hmmm! Go figure

[@gldnboy17]

So sad that you would speak so lowly of such a highly regarded person who has put over 40 yrs n2 ministering through song. Just cuz it doesnt minister 2 you, doesnt mean that someone else wasn't touched. Getcha mind out of the box, & look at the folks with their hands raised, & their hearts opened... That's where it is, If it takes grunting and screaming to reach the lost, then so be it... Besides, don't nobody wanna listen to no dead ol' music, but hey, it does minister to some... soooo. lol.

[@CurtBrian]

But then again...if her name was like Donna Brown or something and most people on here heard her singing like this, they wouldn't give this clip the time of day at all and wouldn't like the way it sounds....go figure? I hope no one gets offened by what I have said here becuz I as not judging or being critical of VBA Just being honest about what my ears are hearing...

[@CurtBrian]

That was not the point of the conversation...

[@gldnboy17]

Well im not saying whether or not its the anointing. Im just saying that she is actually touching ppl. Believe me, im not back peddling, i just heard someone sing a few weeks ago that was really only anointed to keep quiet, but he thought it was a good idea to try n sing. Horrible. No one was moved or touched, no ministry. So im saying, theres a difference.

[@gldnboy17]

Well, im not saying whether its the anointing or not, im just saying that its working for someone, trust me, i just heard a guy sing a few weeks ago that was anointed to be quiet, but he thought it was a good idea to sing... Horrible. Her stripes were earned. Thats all.

[@CharlieBo313]

I don't know what she does these days when she's singing but it doesn't sound good.
